Keep in mind that it costs over $50K per year to attend Brown university. I'm sure those students can really relate to the problems of the working poor... |
its totally irrelivant, America is their country too, maybe they do like the way thing are being done, they are entitled to their opinion regardless of their financial background. And at the rate things are going, its possible that $50k wont be worth the paper its printed on in the not to distant future anyway.
The protesters are not just student and hippies, (and who the hell are we to look down on students and hippies anyway?) many are ordinary working and middle class Americans just like you.
This petty cuture of 'discredit what you dont like' seems to me like a cowardly way of attempting to side step around issues rather than face them head on.
The American mainstream Media does it extremely well and teaches american citizens to do the same.
Turn that garbage off, there are plenty of places online where you can hear it from the horses mouth, in this day and age you no longer need a co-operate sponsered middle-man to tell you what going on in your country right now.
